"The conquest of Malacca in 1511 allowed the Portuguese to gain control over the Spice Road between Southeast Asia and the Persian Gulf. In the 16th century, Malay was a widely diffused lingua franca of intra-Asian trade and communication. The presence of the Portuguese in Southeast Asia led to linguistic exchanges: some Portuguese words, which were mostly related to navigation and trade goods, entered the Malay language, and a certain number of Malay words found their way into the Portuguese vocabulary. Later on, the Malay language also adopted Dutch and English words."
en.unesco.org/silkroad/knowle...
"These past communications between Portuguese and Fareast people are still effective today, as the Malay and Portuguese languages kept their mutual influences. There is still an important community in Malacca inherited from this time. They are descendants of Portuguese people who blended with Malaccans during years, representing the cultural diversity of the legacy of the Silk Roads. As well as, the Portuguese and the Malay languages, which are nowadays two of the most spoken languages in the world, are amongst the many traces of our common heritage."

If I'm not mistaken, The Portugues language/words that we use here in Malaysia are the Old-Portugues or Galician-Portugues from the north of Portugal. So that's why the sound and spelling of the words quite different from the Modern Portugues I guess. And as for myself, I can understand the words that 2 uncle cannot understand because those words are still used in Indonesian language, while for Malaysia we already replace it from the words either in Arabic, Persian, English, Chinese or Sanskrit. And for your information, we in Malaysia usually use the portugues words in our literary works such as poems, short stories and songs. Because of the sound of the word reminds us about the old days and it sound so classic.

[@njsfer]

Wow, that's so cool. Maybe if you listen to some fado you'll find it somewhat familiar. I'm Portuguese and I live in the north, 70km away from the Portuguese border with Spain, really close to Galicia. All the words used here are normal words in "modern Portuguese", although some things like "tanque" aren't used that much these days because we have washing machines, lol. But apart from that, I didn't see any word that isn't used today. There are many words that are old fashion but the ones used in the video are not the case, any kid can understand them. But you're right about the Galician because the Portuguese language came from Galician and then changed and also had some Arabic routes and others. Edit: I hadn't watched the whole video when I wrote my comment. There is one word that isn't used much now, "caldo" for example. Another interesting thing is the fact that some words that start with a "V" in Portuguese, are usually written very similarly in Malay but with a "B". Here in the north of Portugal many people still do that, in Spanish they do the same in many words too.

[@rahimidollah1444]

Even today Brazilian Portuguese different against Lisbon/European Portugese

[@khairiaris]

Indeed, in songs and poems we tend to use words of older origin for fancy purpose.. So Portugese, Sanskrit and Arabic are the go to.. But for modern and contemporary works, loanwords mostly come from English..

Yes I remembered when I was in primary school when we learned Malay word, the teacher told us about about the imported words like almari and garpu were from the Portugese occupation, and as for bangku, even the Hokkien Nonya in Penang would refer the "stool" as bangku. My grandmother taught me that. Malay is a very young language evolved from different occupation in the country, and till now, it is still evolving and increasing its vocabulary. Kudos travelgramers! This is such as historical lesson! I'll share with my nieces and newphews, aunts and uncles about it too!

[@apisje700]

malay language isnt young, it just adopt other languages. malay language root is sanskrit, malay alphabet have change 2 times from pallava/sanskrit > jawi/arabic > rumi/roman. example vamsa > بعسا > bangsa another example vrata > برتا > berita, arabic language using ب for V in sanskrit and roman using B for ب in arabic. so conclusion is malay word come from sanskrit and adopt other languages mostly on thing brought by merchant like bangku, anggur and other while thing sold by local will be adopt by outsider like durian, rattan and other.

[@littlenewthings2662]

@@apisje700 it is "young" as a Bahasa Malaysia, if compared other known languages like sanskrit, Arabic, Mandarin, Hebrew, Greek, German, French, etc. Importing the words from Sanskrit doesn't mean it is as old as Sanskrit, yes? As far as I remembered from my Malay language teacher, Malay is considered "young" compared to other languages. :)

Malays borrowed a hundreds of Portuguese words due to influenced during colonial era. but thats not a first time. During Pre-Islamic era, Malays adopted Indian culture due to indianised of South East Asia(some of SEA are hindus and buddhist). and they borrow a tons of sanskrit words later, when islam arrived malays adopt arab influence and borrowed thousand of arabic words. Malays language are rooted back from Austronesian language family(from madagascar to new zealand). our original austronesian/malays words(without foreign language) - Darah -Rumaq/Rumah -Panah -'Ayam/Qayam/Manok -Batu -Api -Satu/Dua/Empat/Lima/ and much more.. loandwords is common things, english do borrowed thousands of french and latin words. here a list of english words of malay origin... English : Malay Paddy = Padi Bamboo = Mambu Amok = Amuk/Mengamuk Pangolin = pĕngguling Rattan = Rotan and the list go on....

Not true. I think the original Malay words were just supplanted by these foreign words when they became more in fashion. It is not that we didnt have the words for them before. Of course those things that are not found originally here, we didnt have the word for it, like keju, of course there have never been keju here. But the fact that there's the Malay word "tingkap" for "janela" means that we did have the terms for a lot of things that are commonly found here. We still call harimau, harimau, because we have it here.
